Is it my imagination or is this totally bogus? It's stored in
config.status so that it can be passed to configure again and it's
parsed by configure itself and stored in a variable. And that seems to
be it.
So, what's the answer:
(a) Hit me with a LART for being cluelessly wrong;
(b) Remove it from configure;
(c) Someone with plenty of aspirin modify configure so that
--program-suffix=-beta works as expected.
?
Thanks.

It's autogenerated by autoconf. Arguably this is a bug in autoconf, for
zsh's configure.in doesn't call the macro that makes it useful.
It's trivial to enable it, though:

Ah, sorry. This only handles --target if AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM is called
elsewhere, and zsh's configure.in uses AC_CANONICAL_HOST instead. Oh,
well ... it really does handle program_prefix and program_suffix ....
